15 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

Visiting Speed Boats Tours and Kismet Beach will get you outdoors. You'll get in some beach time at Seaside Park Beach and Bay Head Beach. Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Ocean Beach (in Ocean Beach), Point Lookout Beach (in Point Lookout) and Lido Beach (Nickerson Beach Park & Lido Beach). The adventure continues: steep yourself in history at World Trade Center Memorial Foundation, wander the streets of Dumbo, examine the collection at Ground Zero Museum Workshop, and get lost in a book at Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum.
